Â…so I drive 1200 miles through more Soy beans than God knew existed to make a date that RdFx set up and the bogger stands me up! What kind of way is that to treat a fellow? Anyhow! :x

I even went to huntin for himÂ…checked in with Boggy 2 or 27 timesÂ…no RdFx. I says to Boggy (who by the way is a long haired cast back from the 70Â’s for you guys who hainÂ’t had the pleasure :eek: ) so what does RdFx look like when heÂ’s fixed up to be in public? Now IÂ’m gonna quote ole Boggy boy here, Â“heÂ’s the ugliest guy hereÂ”. That was a bunch of help, like pickin out the prettiest Playboy Bunny, it was. Â“The ugliestÂ” at a national gathering of trappers, DANG! And most of them are bigger than the average fellow and look like theyÂ’d take the skin right off your back! Well needless to say I didnÂ’t enlist any help in pickin ugly. :oops:

Chet and I hung out at the Tapperman corner watchin for ole RdfxÂ…never saw himÂ…and if we did we didnÂ’t recognize him as being any uglier than the rest. While we were there we ate a plate of roast pig and deep fried gator that the Tapperman crew was cookin. Word is that the moderators of that forum donated all the fixinis for the membersÂ…hint hint hint. :twisted:

Now, guess who else wasnÂ’t thereÂ…yep Asa. Came all that way to save freight on lure and no Asa. Had to buy it from Boggy rusty caps and all. hehehe.

ThatÂ’s another thing when you fellows notice that BoggyÂ’s got wet feet, BEAT a path out of there heÂ’s plain contrary! Man I pity them poor beaver. He caught me and Chet between a tarp and three tables and made us wash off all of his waresÂ…every last stinkin 1 once bottle of AsaÂ’s lure, 4302 conibear triggers, 27 yoho trowels, 47 pairs of long rubber glovesÂ…kind you use to pregnancy test cows and 211 packages of various swivels and such. Next day he was a smiling and a grinning ear too ear turns out the cleanin we gave em made sales pick up but good.

Well anyhow IÂ’m back safe and sound in NM. Got my two bottles of AsaÂ’s super catch every cat that walks within a 1/4 mile of the trap, lure and wonÂ’t have to pay the US Post Office a centÂ…fooled them! :-D

Forgot one thing, I heard from what I figure are pretty reliable sources that there may be a shortage of urine this year (Coyote) and there is apparently little if any quality cat urine. Just passing one what I heard.

Heck how could you be at Bogs stand he was over by me more times than i could count at Red neck lures right next to the ICE CREAM STAND. Shucks didnt you see me with that long legged cowgirl?

?? Lordy , lordy made me feel 16 again LOL. I was at BBQ holding on to Maw so i could get my son to take pictures which i will post when i learn how. Heck i was at auction till 1230 am right up front. White western hat and eyes half closed LOL... Sure was hot on the concrete but did wander in the aircondition booth area where i checked out John Grahams wife oops i mean upcoming new dogless trap. A fella next to me said how in the H-ll could and ugly trapper like John end up with a long legged beauty like that LOL....... By the way Wacky seen two dead yotes on the way down to Bloomington. On way back home didnt see any road kills till got back into WI. possums, skunks, coon, bvr. Say you didnt bring any peyote buttons for Bog to use in his bvr lure did ya. Man i never seen him smile so much

. OF course he was a little ornery in the morning as he couldnt find coffee at 4 am in morning . Oh well will rest up and in two weeks up to Marquette to keep tabs on Bog :eek:

WQ I saw redfox Fri morning at his stand. He was in Mucho Pain. Guess he partied a little hard. Glad you all enjoyed the cookout . We cooked are asses off. It was the best Tman cookout to date.....B.....

Wackyquacker · « **Reply #4 on:** August 17, 2003, 12:30:31 PM »

A bunch of people have been sayin they SAW him...I figure a most of the times it was a cardboard cut out. Rest of the time he was off lookin for pretty cowgirls :shock: ...he's gonna get shot for doin that one of these days. :cry:

Which guy were you? My son and I were leaning on the truck used to prepare the tomatoes, taters and corn. Thanks for all your efforts! We had a great time. Hugh, maybe we were better off not findin our dinner date.

Big B · « **Reply #5 on:** August 17, 2003, 12:45:05 PM »

WQ I was the Guy helpin out cookin gator and kinda running around checkin on things. I was driving the white ford truck everybody was leanin on. My wife Paula was also there helpin with the donations. Mike "coonwise" and "Gasconade" also helped out with the gator cookin. "Bpb" also was a big help as was "Drifter".. Ray and Marcie carved most of the hog, (A Huge Help) Ray Robinson of wildcat fur company donated the hog and Duke trap company donated 25 cases of beer. Many people brought other things like chicken, taters,corn and all of the other sides. I'm not sure who brought the Shine, but there were rumors that it came from NC. It sure made drifter goofy about Midnight and some southern boys. You know its gonna be good when one of them boys says " hey guys watch this" and it was......B.....

Were you the crotchety guy or the fellow what always had his fingers covered with dip or the guy with the glove pickin the basket out of the pot or the guy holdin the tin foil pan and runnin the gator to the table?

Thanks for parkin your truck handy. Not only a good lean but a place to through the empties and trash :-D

RdFx · « **Reply #7 on:** August 17, 2003, 01:28:40 PM »

Wacky had a truck to lean on . I have about 50 pictures of BBQ Wacky describe yrself that day and the boy i will look them over and then post it. I cant believe you didnt see me hugging Maw Capone while she was holding the pickled eggs for pictures. It almost seems you were hiding !!!!

Oh well i suppose you being fm the wide open spaces all that noise and closeness of people stressed ya out :shock:

Wackyquacker · « **Reply #8 on:** August 17, 2003, 01:38:31 PM »

I'm 6"2" tall, handsome and lovable. Most often I'm seen with a very intelligent look on my face and show a reverant demeanor. That day I would have had a tan work shirt on an oliver cap and amber sunglasses

with my son (16) standin next to me.

Like I said before Boggy had me lookin for the ugliest guy there and it was flat hard to choose. :eek:

toecatch · « **Reply #13 on:** August 18, 2003, 08:44:33 AM »

I dont recall any of you. I was there. Brought the maters and hot peppers. Who walked off with them hot peppers? Not that I care, i got 2 more gallons of them when I got home, and still some going bad on the plants! I was the one with the 2 kids sitting on the pic table till food serving time was there.

Wackyquacker · « **Reply #14 on:** August 18, 2003, 12:56:14 PM »

Well now let's see, you brought the maters...were you the fellow slicinig them? The guy talkinig tomaters with the fellow slicing them...discussion about the "gelsize" and shipping characteristics of different strains? One of those two put out 5000 plants; dang thats a bunch of hoeing! Or someone else?

RdFx · « **Reply #15 on:** August 18, 2003, 01:09:56 PM »

Yea Wacky forgot to mention about the mater and cuke dish that myself, and trappinggal brought over to the BBQ . Did you get any , by time i got up to table it was all gone. Must have been good and you were probably ahead of me too LOL>

Wackyquacker · « **Reply #16 on:** August 18, 2003, 01:23:54 PM »

Nope, didn't get any. I was waiting for my DATE what never showed up and didn't eat till my belly growled so loud the fellow cooking the corn looked up and burnt his finger. Opps, shouldn't said that you might get sued for bein the direct cause of his burn. :-D

By the way T-man took out a contract on you for me. So watch your self this weekend at the UP gathering...there I go again forgot you'll probably stand all those guys up too :roll:

RdFx · « **Reply #17 on:** August 18, 2003, 01:56:10 PM »

Heck Bog is going to have extra thermoses of coffee and im bringing a electric one, thirty cupper LOL and thats just for BOG. Tman will have a spot for me hopefully under some cool shade trees......

toecatch · « **Reply #18 on:** August 19, 2003, 03:40:19 PM »

No mine where in a 5 gallon buckett. I didnt stick around while they where slicing them. Me and another fellow brought maters. I think they had an aboundent of em. I was wearing the Dodge Racing shirt. The boy stole my Tman hat, and wouldnt take it off, execpt to fill it with rocks.

Wackyquacker · « **Reply #19 on:** August 19, 2003, 07:06:28 PM »

Drifter1 · « **Reply #20 on:** August 20, 2003, 01:16:34 PM »

Was good to meet all the folks that I did at the BBQ . Sure didn't get to shake many hands though with hog all over em LMAO . I was the ugly one in carhartts slicing hog . Thought for sure the rain would stop the roast but after the last drop fell didn't take em long to come out of hiding .The pickeled eggs were great how about a recipie ?

I am always kinda silly anyway BigB , gotta be true to my nature ya know . That NC spring water sure packs a punch though .

Drifter
